This has been on my mind for some time now. Does anyone know what the average NAPLEX score is and what it was in pass years with the approximate distribution?

Pretty much the same as the information that I have been able to find. Thinking that it may be time to reevaluate the passing threshold.
Saw this and thought it was interesting http://pharmacy.samford.edu/msop_admissions.aspx?id=6442466449 (I have no affiliation with the McWhorter school and found the NAPLEX and MPJE in UT and AZ to be exceedingly easy). Hopefully they up the difficulty in the next few years (125 on Naplex w/ 16 hours of studying; 85 and 84 on MPJE with 8 hours of studying for each MPJE). I did work retail and hospital as a pharm student so that may have played into my perception of the tests.

126 here I think. Naplex is easy, so I didn't really study for it because passing was never in doubt. I spent most of my time studying MPJE, and like what I was told, left MPJE feeling like I could have failed but passed with plenty to spare.
Yeah, I never really worried about the NAPLEX or MPJE. Aced the NAPLEX, in the 130s if I remember correctly, 80s for MPJE, but the NYS Compounding Exam scared the **** out of me. I passed with exactly a 75, close one.
lol I got a 75 on compounding too. I honestly think they just look at it and if you kinda know what you're doing, they pass you with a 75, I know 3 other people who got 75's. I know for a fact that I got higher but didn't really care to investigate since I passed.
Compounding was trivially easy for me, even though I took it while suffering from food poisoning: no food, water, or sleep for almost 3 days(!) beforehand
Although it did impact my score; I am not divine. I made some easy mistakes I even knew of at the time
NAPLEX and MPJE, on the other hand, I barely studied, and by the time I took them had no motivation for, and it showed
